Environmental watchdog RimbaWatch has been hard at work, keeping an eye on forests by using open source data and analytics, and shining a spotlight on deforestation in Malaysia, while also highlighting environmental abuses.
It recently unveiled a one-stop-centre for data deforestation on its website, which for the first time allows users to visualise past and future deforestation on the data portal.
It also just released its quarterly report, covering the period January-March 2023. The report identified 9,372 hectares of new threats to forests and six land rights conflicts involving indigenous communities.
BFM talks to Adam Farhan, the co-founder and director of RimbaWatch.
